Man Seeks God
Author: Eric Weiner
Publisher: Hachette+ORM
ISBN: 1455505706
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 317
Book Description
Bestselling author of Geography of Bliss returns with this funny, illuminating chronicle of a globe-spanning spiritual quest to find a faith that fits. When a health scare puts him in the hospital, Eric Weiner-an agnostic by default-finds himself tangling with an unexpected question, posed to him by a well-meaning nurse. "Have you found your God yet?" The thought of it nags him, and prods him-and ultimately launches him on a far-flung journey to do just that. Weiner, a longtime "spiritual voyeur" and inveterate traveler, realizes that while he has been privy to a wide range of religious practices, he's never seriously considered these concepts in his own life. Face to face with his own mortality, and spurred on by the question of what spiritual principles to impart to his young daughter, he decides to correct this omission, undertaking a worldwide exploration of religions and hoping to come, if he can, to a personal understanding of the divine. The journey that results is rich in insight, humor, and heart. Willing to do anything to better understand faith, and to find the god or gods that speak to him, he travels to Nepal, where he meditates with Tibetan lamas and a guy named Wayne. He sojourns to Turkey, where he whirls (not so well, as it turns out) with Sufi dervishes. He heads to China, where he attempts to unblock his chi; to Israel, where he studies Kabbalah, sans Madonna; and to Las Vegas, where he has a close encounter with Raelians (followers of the world's largest UFO-based religion). At each stop along the way, Weiner tackles our most pressing spiritual questions: Where do we come from? What happens when we die? How should we live our lives? Where do all the missing socks go? With his trademark wit and warmth, he leaves no stone unturned. At a time when more Americans than ever are choosing a new faith, and when spiritual questions loom large in the modern age, Man Seeks God presents a perspective on religion that is sure to delight, inspire, and entertain.

Son of Man and Son of God
Author: John C. Dwyer
Publisher: Wipf and Stock Publishers
ISBN: 159752137X
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 225
Book Description
For the Christian there is only one question that really matters: Who is Jesus Christ? The answer to this question determines the way we think about God and about ourselves and therefore it determines the way we live and the way we die. This book strives to answer that question by taking as its starting point a critical reading of the New Testament and by evaluating the role played by almost nineteen centuries of doctrinal and dogmatic tradition in fashioning the faith of the Christian today. This book invites the reader to engage in serious theological thought, but it is not written for professional theologians alone. It is written for all, inside and outside the churches, who are attracted by Jesus of Nazareth and who want to answer his own question: Who do you say that I am?

God Is a Man of War
Author: Stephen De Young
Publisher: Ancient Faith Publishing
ISBN: 9781955890045
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 160
Book Description
Infanticide. Holy war. Divine wrath. Violence in the Old Testament has long been a stumbling block for Christians and skeptics alike. Yet conventional efforts to understand this violence-whether by downplaying it as allegory or a relic of primitive cultures, or by dismissing the authority of Scripture altogether-tend to raise more questions than they answer. God Is a Man of War offers a fresh interpretation of Old Testament accounts of violence by exploring them through the twofold lens of Orthodox tradition and historical context. Father Stephen De Young examines what these difficult passages reveal about the nature of Christ and His creation, bearing witness to a world filled not only with pain and suffering-often of human making-but also with the love of God.

Faith in the Land of Make-Believe
Author: Lee Stanley
Publisher: Zondervan
ISBN: 0310325471
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 278
Book Description
More than a narrative about a young man destined to accomplish the impossible, more than a chronicle of successful Hollywood writer, producer, and director, Lee Stanley’s unparalleled success that changed not only his life but also the lives of millions of others … Faith in the Land of Make-Believe is the gritty memoir of someone who was never taught how to be a man, a husband, or a father, and was scared to death somebody would find out. Now an award-winning filmmaker, author Lee Stanley learned early in life never to show a weakness. With a macho facade, womanizing ways, and hair-trigger rage, Stanley became his own worst enemy—an enemy that only Christ could defeat. Faith in the Land of Make-Believe is the powerful and brutally honest story of a man who learned how to become totally dependent on God. This is a book about passion, determination and a refusal to give up. Most importantly it is about fulfilling your purpose by never backing down, and always standing solely and completely upon the Word of God.

Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 312
Book Description
Susan Puzio was involved in the false Word of Faith teachings for over 15 years.

The Bible says, "to mark them who cause divisions " (Romans 16:17). WE mark them, expose the heresy, and the truth will always win
